The Westbrooks: Broken Hearts, Tome 1 : Cross My Heart

Résumé

A single dad and a damaged soul…

Three kids. One ex-wife. And a seven-figure business to run. My world is absolute chaos. I don’t have time to breathe, let alone grieve the loss of my father. Not when nanny number three quits and everyone is demanding something from me.

When Lanie walks into my life—and the guest room across the hall—she’s the breath of fresh air the kids and I need. Smart, sassy, and beautiful, she refuses to be intimidated by my scowls. For the first time, I feel like someone finally has my back.

But I see the shadows in her eyes. The more I learn about Lanie’s dark past, the more I want to protect her. She’s the missing piece to my fractured family, and I need to convince her to stay. To make her choose us. Choose me. And I’ll do that one grand gesture at a time.

Dexter Cross will never understand my kind of damaged…

I’ve learned to be the kind of cautious that never lets a man close enough to hurt me again. It doesn’t matter that Dex makes me feel like I’m someone special, someone who deserves to be protected. It doesn’t matter that his kids have burrowed their way into my heart.

Some souls are just too damaged to love. I need to leave soon before someone gets hurt.
